....of the vote or more. Not just most states, or some states - ALL of the remaining states.

Each time he wins a state by less than that % or loses a state, that 55+% number goes up. And now there are 29 states and 5 or 6 territories remaining. That means he has to go on a 30+ state/territory winning streak.

Then, after that, he also has to split the superdelegates by 50/50 (and Clinton already has the endorsements of about 65% of them).

Does anyone in this country realistically think that is going to happen?
